Instructions

1

Prepare the patty mixture

Combine the ground beef, chopped red onion, parsley, minced garlic, diced jalapeño, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.

Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the patties tough.

Ingredients needed for this step

ground beef red onion parsley garlic jalapeño kosher salt black pepper
2

Shape the patties

Form the mixture into four equal patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty.

The indentation helps the patties cook evenly and prevents them from puffing up.

Ingredients needed for this step

ground beef
3

Prepare the grill

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and clean the grates. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Ensure the grill is hot before placing the patties to achieve a good sear.

4

Grill the patties

Grill the patties for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Add a slice of cheese during the last minute of cooking.

Avoid pressing down on the patties while grilling to retain their juices.

Ingredients needed for this step

ground beef cheese
5

Prepare the toppings

Slice the avocado and prepare the lettuce leaves.

Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado for clean slices.

Ingredients needed for this step

avocado lettuce
6

Toast the buns

Toast the burger buns on the grill for about 30 seconds, cut side down.

Watch closely to prevent the buns from burning.

Ingredients needed for this step

7

Assemble the burgers

Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on the bottom buns, followed by avocado slices and lettuce. Top with the other half of the bun.

Feel free to add your favorite condiments or extra toppings.
